Re: Driver Interviews
An original 1967 Shelby GT500? Yes, please. Bob Swan made the 1000 mile trip from South Dakota to St. Louis and dropped a valve in his 428 after an early qualifying pass. After debating whether or not to pack it in, his wife persuaded him to try fixing it. He spent much of the second day getting a new valve in and saw there was no serious damage elsewhere and was able to continue. He was back to sky high wheelies and going rounds later in the week. Perseverance. It's the gift that class racing keeps on giving.
